Ana Cabrera More than 1,000flights canceled Christmas weekend. I feel so bad for those impacted. We are on our way to Colorado for a full Cabrera Christmas with all my sibs and their families too. It’s been 2 whole years since we’ve all been together. All (eligible)vaxxed and boosted.

LeeAnn Webster Now I understand everybody wanted to go home for Christmas, except me. I think it was not too smart to travel. This is why I drive, and you don’t go in the middle of winter! Start a petition to do summer Christmas!
